The Business of Natural Resources
The NREM degree prepares you for a career in natural resource management by giving you a solid foundation in natural sciences and a deep understanding of entrepreneurship and business principles. Throughout your time in this program, you’ll learn to strike a balance between development and stewardship to benefit both people and resources.
